Well, that’s much more easier given that it’s based on a European tradition generally extending from ancient Greek and Roman rule. Europe grew from a ...

Trust me I’m not here to gain popularity. I am almost certainly not going to believe everything uou believe. I am always willing to look for common gr...
March 20, 2019 at 02:59
Nope. I shouldn’t do what you think because you think it. Provide a good argument as to why I “should” be “gentler” and what exactly “gentler” means o...
March 20, 2019 at 02:55
I imagine you’re referring to ONE specific cultural identity of people in a particular geographical location? If you visit Africa you’d find a whole a...

Kid or not, I treat everyone with the respect I deem they’re due. If someone wishes to develop their ideas they need to express them and have them cha...

Keep it to yourself then. No bother. I wasn’t being “rude” just honest. You come to a philosophy and make a huge claim yet don’t want to make your tho...

It should be noted that billions and billions more are pumped into selling/advertising food that reducing human health ... a few measly billion aside ...

Well, it’s already here and has lasted long enough to call it “lasting” I’d say?
March 20, 2019 at 01:28
Basically you’re saying there is more to life than intellectual pursuits, correct? That is the only sense I can make of the OP if I’m generous.
March 20, 2019 at 00:35
We’re living in one of the most peaceful times in history. Things are pretty good over all.
March 20, 2019 at 00:32
There is no such thing as “white” or “black” culture. It is like saying I’m ashamed or proud or ashamed of people under six feet tall, or people with ...
March 20, 2019 at 00:28
Are you being antagonistic? I am basically saying that all humans are humans. There are not subspecies. The term “race” is commonly used out of it’s s...
March 20, 2019 at 00:25
I was just quoting your use. You said “many liberals” and I questioned that by saying I thought it could be more due to SOME. I was not referring to a...
March 19, 2019 at 16:29
In that case you’re mistaken on two counts. I didn’t type either “liberal” or “west”? I think as you’ve replied to several different posts that you’ve...
March 19, 2019 at 14:40
They’d agree? No idea what you mean here? There is only technically ONE human race. The term “race” has become so commonly misused that it is in socia...
March 19, 2019 at 14:26
Thanks for the reply. What sentiments about the “West”? I don’t believe I said anything about east or west. I’ve heard the whole “alt-right” doesn’t m...
March 19, 2019 at 10:13
You beat me to it! :D “it depends” ;)
March 19, 2019 at 07:35
I don’t think “many liberals” are. A few making enough noise, especially with the internet to work with, can make the political landscape seem far mor...
March 19, 2019 at 07:34
Obviously when you’ve planned your life around one singular purpose and had that purpose torn away from you let’s not pretend this is an easy thing to...
March 19, 2019 at 07:30
I don’t see how this is completely true. Some people back “multi-culturalism” when it suits their means. When it doesn’t they ignore it ans switch tac...
March 19, 2019 at 07:23
I cannot pretend to have looked indepth into the political label of “alt-right” myself. I am well aware that regardless of what a person means by stat...
March 19, 2019 at 07:17
If there was a “maybe” answer I reckon everyone would go for that, think a bit harder, then change their mind’s and click YES.
March 19, 2019 at 06:23
No. There is a difference between nonsense and speculation. You may as well suggest that the moon is made of cheese - it is seriously the level of non...
March 19, 2019 at 03:44
I’m human, I’m stupid. Everyone I’ve also seems pretty stupid too. Good enough? ;)
March 18, 2019 at 16:54
What’s next, flying pigs? Haha! Have fun guys. Thanks for the laughs :)
March 18, 2019 at 16:52
I was asking you. If you don’t want to share fair enough. I have no problem with unconvential ideas. I liked the idea of the “aquatic ape” hypothesis....
March 18, 2019 at 14:40
The guy is a kook. Maybe you could tell me when abouts he thinks this happened?
March 18, 2019 at 10:25
Hate speech, and/or incitement to violence (which is the crux of the point I guess?), most certainly can create hatred and violence. The problem we ha...
March 18, 2019 at 04:27
Nope. I think you got it right the first time. As is it makes more sense to have a hand in preserving two human lives more tha it is to preserve one h...
March 18, 2019 at 04:12
So what? Do such people expect everyone to apply their personal non-universal definition intuitively?
March 18, 2019 at 03:54
This is hysterical!! Hahaha!
March 18, 2019 at 03:53
I pre-emptied this response. It is still useful because understanding where someone no so far gone could go and how they get there is important defusi...
March 17, 2019 at 14:25
There are other variations that show choices are effected by physical distance - eg. far fewer people feel comfortable about pushing someone onto the ...
March 17, 2019 at 08:59
Being a self-serving arrogant prick that I am, I was just wondering if anyone - especially the poster of the OP - had any comments to offer about my e...
March 17, 2019 at 06:42
I asked if your position could be interpreted as “islamophobic” I was not saying it was, wasn’t or that the term “islamophobic” is a fair label. I’m n...
March 17, 2019 at 05:48
I think if read it back I said that it may have been racist, but in and of itself it isn’t a racist comment - context matters and I don’t profess to k...
March 17, 2019 at 04:35
I never said it wasn’t worth a thought just that is looks like pseudoscience. I said this because you use scientific jargon interspersed with other st...
March 16, 2019 at 07:09
This is simple enough if broken down into more tangible components. As an example someone could insist that they are on fire and feel their skin melti...
March 16, 2019 at 06:53
Sounds like pseudoscience babble to me I’m afraid. Anyway, have fun with it :) Strange analogies and far-flung speculation does sometimes open up inte...
March 16, 2019 at 06:34
Just curious, did anyone actually watch the link I posted? If so, any thoughts?
March 16, 2019 at 05:49
What does this mean? “Supernatural networks” meaning what exactly?
March 16, 2019 at 05:46
Sorry, perhaps I wasn’t clear. I never meant to say “commerce” was a problem anymore than I would technology. I was trying to outline that technology ...
March 16, 2019 at 05:36
How do I do that? This is the issue with definitions of “god” or some “universal force”. Just because we can utter words that sound reasonable it does...
March 15, 2019 at 12:37
I think maybe you have a set idea of what “human nature” is that you’ve not made explicit enough. We are quite unique creatures in the sense we’re bot...
March 15, 2019 at 09:26
The financial value given to the food exported doesn’t represent the quantity produced. It’s not the best way to present the production of food. You s...

Heidegger and Derrida are the main two I’ve come across. Both use several pages to say something they could’ve said in one. I can kind of forgive Derr...
March 15, 2019 at 04:06
How about posting on a relevant forum?
March 15, 2019 at 03:09
I don’t quite see how this is relevant to Free Speech but: Other facets of society being? Have you done a comparison based on income too or only “race...
